[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It just seems like Shepherd to Wells/Coolidge is the most obvious and needed change, but I would bet it's not going to happen. [/quote]

And why should it? As long as DCPS refuses to guarantee an appropriate curriculum in MS and HS for the college-bound, parents will correctly fight to stay in the school that already provides it. [/quote]

I am genuinely asking, is the curriculum that different or is the student population just different? And if the curriculum is different is it because of the student population (I.e. fewer advanced/AP classes because lower demand)? [/quote]

I mean, where did you go to college yourself? I’m guessing you, like most, aimed for the highest academic cohort where you could be accepted. Even if you chose a community college or state college for financial reasons, you likely expected to be in classes taught to a high level. I’m not sure why people seem to understand and accept this for college, but are confused about how this plays out in HS.[/quote]
